Crema's Take
“Velo rotates seasonal coffee flavors that actually justify the hype, and their pastries—especially the chocolate croissants and jalapeño cream cheese varieties—are legitimately worth the trip even if you're just grabbing and going. The indoor space is microscopic and hectic, but the adjacent plaza seating makes it feel less cramped, and you get real value for DTLA prices. Fair warning: it's a high-volume pickup spot with minimal barista chat, so show up knowing what you want.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Pastries and light food on the menu. Parking available.

See all on Google →delicious coffee and i appreciate that they have seasonal flavors! great value for a dtla spot! there is little interaction with baristas/staff and it is pretty crowded inside.

Ordered from this place through ubereats. First order that came they gave me the wrong sandwich. I reordered the sandwich and got a half sandwich where the top part of the bagel is missing and seems to be eaten already. Ridiculous and very unsanitary . Won’t be ordering from…

I tried a matcha latte and an everything jalapeño cream cheese croissant here--both were delicious. I was especially happy to find that the matcha was unsweetened (which can be hard to find), and you have the option to add a sweetener or omit it entirely. They offer a variety of…
